    What KU FTA receiver(s) do you have or use?

    My Pansat 5000 just died. It was about two years old. I wasn't very happy! My wife was even less happy!! So, I bought a Coolsat 5000. I wanted the blind scan. I am going to miss the hard drive. It is a great way to record. Can you buy a unit with just a hard drive for recording?

    Pictures of a Primestar Dish.

    No I am not using the original LBN. I took the single LBN ,SHN-031 invacom LBN, that I had on my motorized dish and zip locked it on the Primestar dish. The Primestar dish that I got didn't have it's original LBN. It seem to work fine with the zip locks.

    List of North American FTA PVR?

    I have a pansat 5000. I am a little disappointed in it. The timer doesn't work all that great. It doesn't alway stop. So, we don't use the timer all that much. I guess that I was a little spoiled after the Dish Network pvr.

    Can only pick up two satellites

    I moved the motor a few degrees to true south 165'. I did have to reset the dish. It was still on G10. should I of move the dish to G10 then reset the dish even though it is coming in good? It would change the arch. Is G10 my true south? Echo 121 seems to be closer? Thanks

    can only pick up two stellites The post is plumb. I use 11/2 water pipe, so it is strong and won't flex. I haven't changed the motor to true south yet, going to do this weekend. You would think that with the motor off by only a few degrees that I would be able to find another satellite by...

    Can only pick up two satellites

    hi I finally got my motor and figured out how to make it move. I feel stupid after I figured out all you have to do is put the satellite in and push the button. I was trying all kinds of things to program the already programed satellites in. Anyway, I can only get G 10 and t5. They both...
